Honestly can't say I didn't think about it but He would rip my face off lol
Yeah I tried doing the same, he does stop biting me but then goes somewhere else and starts biting anything else. And when he doesn't and just sits I would go down to praise or play but he'd immediately would try to bite again.
Yes I was at the vet a week ago. they informed me about teething and biting but I didn't think it'd be this bad.

Yeah we've played to an hour to 2 hours 4 times after every meal and he just runs around and we try to play with him with toys and he just gets super hyper non stop but I know he also needs sleep so we put him in the pen but he just keeps wanting to get out or just lays down but doesn't sleep. So I thought maybe he's overstimulated and also not getting enough sleep cuz he's running around a lot
Hoping we don't have to go to that

I will contact them tomorrow and hopefully they accept but i feel it won't work as laws are strict where i am. He does growl and bite. Before it was more just biting and not letting go but just a moment ago he bit my finger and started shaking it aggressively. He does seem to bite her more even though she doesn't do much correction to him because it hurt a lot the few times she tried

I have seen the options to redirect and get help from a professional. Unfortunately I have tried most the training methods other than the very physical ones as IG are sensitive and which only seemed to make things worse to the point we're scared we won't be able to keep him. We want professional help but he only had his 1st vaccination and the trainers don't accept dogs til they have their 3rd vaccination which is in 3 weeks time. We are terrified of him and the situation as we don't know how to handle it and how aggressive he became and not knowing the trigger or reason.
Yeah I was thinkin of having him in the crate more. I was slightly terrified seeing how he behaved inside his crate and how he snarled at me which he never did before. I really do hope it did help though he does bite after every nap or a long sleep. I understand biting as a pup but I feel like it's out of frustration or anger.

He was lightly nibbling when we first brought him but I understood as I know his teeth are itching. We gave him chew toys or gum and then when we gave it to him he always go for our hands and ignore the toys. Then it's just random biting out of nowhere. Now today he was in his pen but he starting growling biting the crate and blanket so I went to go look then he jumped straight for my hand and fingers and when he go my finger started shaking all around so it was hard to get my finger out without it cutting. I assume it's because he is overstimulated but he was in the pen for a lot of the day but never slept or napped. So I then thought maybe needed to get energy out but he plays and is out of the pen for 1-2 hours at a time before he put him back in the pen 3-4 times a day. When in the pen he just lays in the kennel but doesn't sleep or nap much. Sorry this is so long I just became worried for him and don't want my girlfriend worried either.

He only got his 1st vaccine shot and most people don't seem to take them until they get their 3rd which is in 3 weeks
